Modern After Eights with gin and tonic, strawberry as well as orange

With all these new After Eight flavours, gin and tonic is definitely my pick.
Modern After Eights with gin and tonic at Sainsbury.
The dark chocolate was good and tasted better from the fridge as I followed the tip saying best served cold.
The fondant filling was mintier than the strawberry after eight but somehow lacked any taste of gin.
Overall nice but the fondant was too sweet.

After Eight Orange & Mint at Asda


After Eights Strawberry &Mint at Poundland.
These were launched ages ago along with orange mint and gin tonic but I didn't try them back then.
Anyway finally tried them and loved them.
The pairing of strawberry and mint is odd but it worked.
When you open the box you get that lovely chocolate strawberry smell that you get from quality street strawberry creams.
The taste is similar to that with subtle mint flavours so sometimes its like eating a chocolate strawberry creme and sometimes like a regular after eight.

[Review] Mieszko śliwka w czekoladzie - Plum chocolates

The Mieszko śliwka w czekoladzie was another delicious gem I found in the Polish supermarket.
It was candied plum covered in chocolate.
I loved the way you get a big chunk of plum covered in chocolate and it was not too sweet.

[Review] Rolo Dessert Pots

These days many confectioneries are turned into desserts or ice creams which makes the experience even more indulgent.

This year Barratt sweets have come up with flumps ice cream lolly as well as dib dab ice lollies.

Rolo Dessert pots have been around for many years and still taste ridiculously good.

If you have tried the chocolate version, it is basically chewy toffee in chocolate.

The dessert version is similar with toffee creme at the bottom and chocolate on top and the taste is so decadent and satisfying as a dessert.

As well as rolo, there are many other confectionery desserts that have been around for decades which I will review later.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Cherry Liquers

Marks and Spencers Cherry Liquers are divine that once you have tasted them, you wouldn't hesitate getting them again.
Each chocolate contains a whole juicy cherry inside soaked in liqueur.

[Review] Milka Cherry Creme

Cherry and chocolate always go well together so when I saw Milka Cherry Creme I had to try it.
It is filled with cherry sauce in the middle so it is slightly messy when you break the chocolate into pieces but otherwise it was a wonderful chocolate.
The cherry sauce was just amazing as it was slightly tart while the chocolate was very sweet so having it with tea or something like that is great.

Milka was quite famous decades ago and then it went quiet, they are definitely revving things up recently with all these choices like cakes and other things.

[Review] Lindt Orange Chocolate Bar

So far Lindt chocolate has been quite agreeable so I was confident in trying the orange chocolate bar.

It turned out quite nice as the orange wasn't that artificial and the sweetness was just right.

On the contrary, I used to like Terry's Chocolate orange but the taste does not seem to be as good as before as the sweetness is just too sweet and the orange tastes like orange essense.

[Review] Doisy & Dam Chocolate

Discovered Doisy and Dam chocolates at Boots, so decided to grab them all.
The flavours I got were Dark Chocolate with maple, toasted rice & pink salt, Dark Chocolate with coconut and lucuma and Dark Chocolate with maca, vanilla & cacao nibs.

What makes Doisy and Dam chocolates is that they are made with super ingredients like maca, lucuma and cacao nibs.

It is hard to say which one is my favourite because they are all different.

Personally I liked the Dark Chocolate with maca, vanilla & cacao nibs because of the crunch from the cacao nibs.


The maple and coconut were equally likable, again the coconut one has lots of shredded coconut in it while the maple with pink salt has a nice salt quick with crispy rices pieces.

[Review] Daim Limited Edition Lemon

A Daim bar is a Swedish chocolate bar made from crunchy almond caramel covered in milk chocolate.

Spotted the limited edition Lemon so tried it.

I am not sure what to make of it but it was quite nice as the lemon wasn't that artificial or overwhelming.





As well as lemon, there has been Cappuccino, forest fruit bar, gingerbread, Coke, White chocolate, dark chocolate, blueberry, lemon/orange and mint.

[Review] Lidl Deluxe Ruby Chocolate

Ruby Chocolate is the fourth type of chocolate following milk, white and dark chocolate.
It was first available in 2017 by Barry Callebaut made with ruby cocoa beans.

In 2018, I finally tried Ruby Chocolate in the form of a kitkat where you could taste notes similar to raspberry.

Later on I was lucky enough to discover a coffee shop serving Ruby Chocolate beverage using Callebaut Ruby Chocolate pellets so I got to try the pellets on their own which were sugary with a raspberry tone.

At Lidl they had the Ruby Chocolate bar so I had to give it a try and it was surprisingly nice because the texture of the chocolate was smooth like galaxy with the fruity raspberry aftertaste that I was expecting.

Definitely worth trying at £1.67.


[Review] KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter

Recently tried the KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter which was not my cup of tea but then I am not a fan of peanut butter.
The filling was somehow dry and just tasted like dehydrated peanut butter.


[Review] Lindt Lindor Milk Mint Truffles 200g

Lindt Lindor Truffles are popular because they are silky and smooth.
They come in a variety of flavours and the ones I like are hazelnut, coconut and pistachio.

Recently tried the Mint Truffles and they were really addictive especially if you like anything that is mint chocolate.

Lindt Lindor extra dark.
